Protein Review #5: Syntrax - Nectar Caribbean Cooler

This is a review for Syntrax - Nectar Caribbean Cooler

i'm just gonna tell you, it tastes damn good. DAMN GOOD. why? because i added milk instead of water. had a nice milkshake taste. but more of a fruity island frozen drink, and those are my favorite!! yum yum yum. i truly enjoyed this protein. you may want to use water instead and thats up to you but the texture is WAY better with milk.

 

So per scoop we're talking 100 calories and no fat and no carbs/sugars. Really? hmm...seems to good to be true! This might have to be my go to fruity flavor, just based on taste alone. I think I will get one fruity flavor and one creamy flavor so that i can have options depending on my mood.

I have to say all the Nectar flavors I've tried have all been really tasty. I don't think you could go wrong with this brand.

Protein Review #4: SynTrax Nectar Whey Protein Isolate, Double Stuffed Cookie

Guuuuurrlll, we're talking  Double Stuffed Cookie.....aka Oreo!!!

I mean, look at this shit. You're trying to tell me you wouldn't be sucked in by this label?

Ok Same stats as the Fuzzy Navel. Remember this is for 1/4 a scoop so there's really 100 calories per scoop and 23g (why not 24???) of protein. 

Anyway y'all let's just get right to the taste. First of all, all of the nectar flavors seem to be very thin. It's not a thick protein. That's good for a couple of reasons. 1. that means it doesn't have a bunch of filler crap in it. 2. It won't fill you up. Which for someone like me with a small stomach who wants to get her protein in and a meal, is a very good thing. After all, this is not a meal replacement. Would it taste better if it was thicker? Sure. You could always double the scoop in the same amount of milk and thicken it up that way. Double the protein. But sometimes that can reak havoc on your tummy depending on the protein. Although I never had this problem with ON protein.

Taste wise it tastes awesome. Its like a really thin cookies n cream. The consistency of chocolate milk i guess. It has these little bits of cookie in there. They feel like real cookie bits. If you're looking for a good cookies n cream flavor this is it. I would rather have it thicker though. Just a tad. Perhaps blending it would help.

If you're looking for a thick filling oreo protein powder, check out Giant Sports. Honestly I can't even finish a glass of this stuff. But it's yummy.

Protein Review #3: SynTrax Nectar Whey Protein Isolate, Fuzzy Navel

Ok so my next sample from my sample pack was the yummy sounding (and looking) SynTrax Nectar Fuzzy Navel

 

Now, I'm gonna come out and say that I really don't like the way they label the nutritional facts. Those numbers are so misleading. They're based on 1/4 of a scoop. Who the hell is gonna take 1/4 of a scoop. What kind of bamboozling is that??? I don't appreciate that. So make sure you multiply these numbers by 4. Even then the numbers are great! I don't know why they feel like they have to mislead people like that.

Anyway as far as the taste goes, it was really yummy. A nice fruity flavor. But I just wasn't a fan of the texture. Even the fruity flavors taste better with milk to me. Water just makes protein have a gnarly texture. Ever tried Isopure? BARF!!!!! UGHH!!!! Anyway I think I will try the next fruity flavors with milk instead to get a better feel for it. If you like a fruity tasting protein this is definitely a good one. On top of that it's a whey protein isolate which is a great clean protein and no sugar. Good stuff. Thumbs up. Nectar has samples of all their flavors so I would suggest trying out as many as possible before you order a tub.
